A few thoughts on Geraldine Jupiter (What Darcy calls Veronica Mars - he likes it though!)

So the VM fandom kinda imploded, huh? I don't know why and I don't care. It's nice to be me. :)

Have been watching VM recently (::smooches to [livejournal.com profile] marsterslady again::) and have been enjoying it very much. But I'm easy that way - I'm like Juliet: "I shall look to like, if looking liking moves."


Have only watched 12 episodes, so DON"T SPOIL ME!!!!

I think the show could be summed up as 'pretty, but gritty.' Or maybe the other way round. I like the stories and the overall arch and Veronica is very good heroine. Nothing much like Buffy, except she's blonde and in High School.
(I could write a whole essay on the subject, but funnily enough I don't have the time...)

I'm beginning to see where all the Logan love comes from, as well as the Logan/Veronica shipping, but to be honest I'm not too bothered about any ships. Actually almost all relationships seem to happen off-screen: 'Here's Troy. He's nice and Veronica likes him. Now they're dating! Oh and now he's a two-timing, drug-trafficking bastard.' The way some characters are not fleshed out is probably my main grumbling point. Wallace is sort of Tara at the moment - 'he's really nice and Veronica likes him.' And that's really all I know about him. But I'm sure he'll get an episode sooner or later.

I don't really have time for much more, except to say: "Why did no one ever mention Weevil???" I think I need a Weevil icon! Seriously. (*So* much more Spike-like than Logan! And Logan is cute, but Weevil is hot. Have I alienated enough people yet?)

Must run, I shouldn't be here!

I could ship Weevil/Logan, if I enjoyed slash. LOL I adore Weevil. Eyelashes to die for and a grudgin respect for Veronica and what she is trying to do. He's complex and adorable and I love him. There are lots of Weevil icons out there in the icon communities.

Just ignore the imploding fandom. It all stems from Twop (what else is new?) I still love the show, flaws and all. No TV show is going to be written perfectly or please everyone. It's silly to expect it. VM is good TV.
